Avenue Drop-in
Our drop-in at our Avenue Hub in Southampton is a safe space designed specially for young people aged 11-17 to get information, advice and support from trained youth workers on a wide range of issues affecting their lives.
Open two days a week after school hours, you can come down and talk to a youth worker without having to make an appointment.
Located on The Avenue, this drop-in is accessible by car, bike and public transport.
What can we help you with?
Anxiety
Feeling Low
Bullying
Relationship Advice
Confidence and Self-Esteem
Problems with School
Those are some examples of things that our youth workers help lots of young people with, but they are here to support you with anything that you’re going through or anything that’s on your mind.
Opening times
The regular opening times for our Avenue drop-in are:
Wednesday 3:00 – 6:00pm | Thursday 3:00 – 6:00pm
You don’t need to let us know you’re coming, just turn up and you can bring any family or friends with you if you’d like to.
We will put news of unexpected and planned closures on our Facebook and Instagram (@nolimitshelp) and the home page of our website.
Our drop-in space
The drop-in is located in the front room of no35, one of our two buildings on The Avenue. It is a big open space with lots of tables and colourful chairs and a comfy sofa too. There is water available in there and youth workers will be able to get you a hot drink from the kitchen if you’d like a tea or hot chocolate.
If you would like to talk to a youth worker in private, you can talk to them in one of our counselling rooms.
There is also an accessible toilet next to the drop-in, at the end of the corridor.
How do I get into the drop-in?
1) Go down the side of no35
If you’re driving, the car park is behind no35, so keep going. If you’re walking in from The Avenue, the door to no35 is on the side, so walk down towards the back car park.
2) Ring the bell
Ring the white door bell on the door and one of our team will come and let you in.
3) Go to the drop-in
The drop-in is in the front room of no35, which is on the right as you walk in. One of our youth workers will take you there and help you to settle in.
